Our punter can take a hit. http://www.sbnation.com/lookit/2014/9/13...-all-other

He also has a perfect pass completion percentage this season. Unfortunately he's averaging negative four yards per completion.

I thought he was the starting WR?

I don't even think he was the starter, but I'm not sure.

It's scary how close Rice was to being single-handedly beaten by a punter.

Starting punter, punt returner and WR. Returned 2 punts, caught 4 balls with 2 being TDs, and punted 7 times.
The QB reference was to the ODU punter.

Good for him... it helps that the safety ran straight into his knee. But, it looked pretty cool.

Co-incidentally, we sat next to the aunt and uncle of the punter/DE on the FB team at my daughter's high school last Friday. It was cool that he either got or nearly got a sack.

RE: Rice @ Army pregame thread
Given Army's triple option, heavily run oriented offense, this game will be a true test on the coaching staff's ability to prepare. IMHO, they failed miserably against Hawaii's multiple blitzing schemes. Love to be proven wrong (since I'm going to be at the game) and see our defense shut down Army's running game.

We should, at least on paper and based on talent alone, be able to have our way on offense. This one could be a very high scoring affair if we cannot solve their running attack.

If we run a lot and they run as usual, the game will fly by.
